I went to high school with, was in marching band, and marched in the Velvet Knights Drum and Bugle Corps with Mike. When I have been asked who my all-time favorite drummer is, a few names come to mind; Carter Beauford, Neil Peart, Buddy Rich... Nope it's gotta be Mike Bedard, period. Congrats to Mike, he not only has the talent, but has put in a lot of time and work. I haven’t seen Mike in years, maybe 12 or more.

But this word is actually already in existence. It indeed means to tap with a finger or instrument but it is a medical term. The doctor looks for a kick of the lower leg when he or she "percusses" you just below the knee with that little hammer. Nice post, by the way, partner.
